Item 1. Business
Overview
We are a provider of crypto trading services to the public. Our services are available over the internet atwww.dnax.us. We serve individual cryptocurrency traders around the world. Our products allow users to efficiently buy and sell cryptocurrencies with cash or cash equivalents, or to exchange one cryptocurrency for another cryptocurrency. Our platform allows users to execute strategies between pairs of cryptocurrencies that allow them to swap between the currencies as the prices diverge or converge. This allows users to automate strategies without the need to continuously monitor the market. We are developing products to increase the number of cryptocurrencies that are available for trading on our platform and products the Company expects to bring in additional customers and drive additional revenue from commissions and fees.
We are currently operating on a limited basis to monitor the platform and address any bugs or performance issues. We plan to add additional features and products to the platform throughout 2026 as we execute our growth strategy. We will continue to monitor the platform to ensure that it can handle the anticipated increase in trading volume. We may use social media and traditional media to market our platform to potential customers. We may expand our marketing efforts as new products become available to customers.
Prior to December 2025, when we acquired our platform, we operated under the name Sonim Technologies, Inc. and were primarily focused on designing and manufacturing cell phones and mobile hotspots. We developed the software that ran on our products. We completed the disposition of substantially all assets of our phone and hotspot business in January 2026.
Our Products
Trading and Swapping Cryptocurrencies
Ourwww.dnax.us website allows users to trade or swap certain cryptocurrencies for other cryptocurrencies or for cash equivalent currencies. New customers can set up an account on our website that will allow them to trade cryptocurrencies. The customer owns the assets before and after the trade and commissions are automatically deducted from the trade. We do not take custody of any of our customers’ crypto assets. We employ various security measures in an effort to protect our customers and ourselves from cyber threats. The trades on our platform are generally completed immediately and there is no delay in settling the transactions.
Our platform allows anyone to set up an automated trading strategy and to buy one currency when the price ratio with another currency is reached in one direction, and to sell the currency when the ratio is reached in the other direction. This allows users to automatically trade and capture profits as cryptocurrencies trade with certain ranges. These strategies can be viewed by all users and can be duplicated. Our platform maintains histories of the strategies that can be analyzed to develop new strategies. We generate commission revenue from our users’ trading activity on our platform.
We are developing new products such as products that are intended to allow users to loan out their cryptocurrencies in exchange for fees that are analogous to interest. We are also working to expand our platform to provide users with the ability to trade additional cryptocurrencies.
Our Strategy
The three pillars of our go-forward strategy are as follows:
| ● | Demonstrate the trading strategies of existing users to show new users how strategies can be implemented to capture profits. Keep a leaderboard to allow potential traders to see actual strategies being implemented. Allow users to simulate trading to get familiar with how to use a strategy. |
| ● | Add new products that will bring new users to our platform and provide us with additional opportunities to generate fees from new and existing users. Possible products are staking (borrowing assets to allow user to receive fees that are analogous to interest) and loaning funds from held customer assets. |
| ● | Add additional cryptocurrencies that can be traded or swapped on the platform. |
Our Target Markets
We believe that anyone who owns cryptocurrencies can benefit from our platform. And that those who do not own cryptocurrencies can learn how to profit from trading currencies and can use our platform to get started.
Sales and Marketing
As of December 31, 2025, we have done minimal marketing for our trading platform. Most of the growth of our platform has come through word of mouth and earned media on social media platforms. We plan on increasing our marketing spend as we add new products and expand our platform to support new cryptocurrencies.
Competition
We operate in a highly competitive environment serving customers who trade cryptocurrencies. We have positioned our services to be priced lower than our larger competitors. We monitor our competitors’ offerings, and we will seek to implement features similar to other available platforms. Our fees are lower than our large competitors and we believe that we have a model that keeps our costs as low as possible.
Intellectual Property
We have obtained licenses for certain software that is incorporated into our platform, and we pay fees to licensors that we report as cost of revenue. We have developed customizations to standard software that we believe makes it difficult for others to duplicate our platform. We believe that our platform will provide a competitive advantage over our competition as we add new customized features. We do not believe that our products infringe on the proprietary rights of any third party. There can be no assurance, however, that third parties will not claim such infringement by us with respect to current or future products.
For further discussion of the risks in connection with each of the foregoing matters, see “Item 1A. Risk Factors—Risks Related to Information Technology and Intellectual Property” of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Legislation and Regulation
We are subject to a variety of laws and regulations that involve matters central to our business operations and future business plans. Many of these laws and regulations continue to evolve through legislative and regulatory action and judicial interpretation, and may be modified, interpreted, and applied in an inconsistent manner from one jurisdiction to another, and may conflict with one another. Moreover, the complexity and evolving nature of our business and the significant uncertainty surrounding the regulation of the products we offer, require us to exercise our judgment as to whether certain laws, rules, and regulations apply to us, and it is possible that regulators may disagree with our conclusions.
Therefore, we monitor these areas closely and invest in our legal, compliance, product, and engineering teams to ensure our business practices evolve to help us comply with the current laws, regulations, and legal standards to which we are subject, as well as to plan and prepare for changes in interpretations thereof, as well as additional laws, regulations, and legal standards that are introduced in the future.
Securities
In recent years, the SEC and U.S. state securities regulators have stated that certain digital assets or digital asset products may be classified as securities under U.S. federal and state securities laws, and in the case of the SEC, has made public statements on this topic, however, these statements are not binding or definitive guidance. A number of enforcement actions and regulatory proceedings have since been initiated and concluded against digital assets and digital asset products, as well as against trading platforms that support digital assets and digital asset products. The SEC has characterized a number of crypto assets, products, and services as securities in these regulatory proceedings and enforcement actions. The SEC has stated more recently that a crypto asset itself is not a security, but there is uncertainty and inconsistency in the courts that have grappled with the issue of whether or how certain crypto asset transactions could be deemed securities. Several foreign governments have also issued similar warnings cautioning that digital assets may be deemed to be securities or other similarly regulated financial instruments under the laws of their jurisdictions. We have established policies and practices to evaluate each crypto asset we consider making available for trading on our platform. We also evaluate all other products and services prior to launch under U.S. federal and applicable international securities laws.
Commodities and derivatives
The Commodity Futures Trading Commission, or CFTC, has stated, and CFTC enforcement actions have confirmed, that many crypto assets, including Bitcoin and Ethereum, fall within the definition of a “commodity” under the U.S. Commodities Exchange Act of 1936, or the CEA. Under the CEA, the CFTC has broad enforcement authority to police market manipulation and fraud in spot commodity markets, including the spot crypto markets. We are subject to such authority with respect to improper trading on our platform. In addition, CFTC regulations and CFTC oversight and enforcement authority apply with respect to futures, swaps, other derivative products, and certain retail leveraged commodity transactions involving crypto assets, including the markets on which these products trade. Separately, security-based swaps are subject to SEC regulation and oversight. In general, we seek to ensure that crypto asset transactions on our crypto asset trading platform do not constitute futures, swaps, security-based swaps, other derivative products, or retail leveraged commodity transactions. While many of our products are offered under the authority of the CFTC, state laws and regulations may create conflicting obligations or constraints on our business. We may become subject to regulatory scrutiny or legal challenge with respect to our compliance with these requirements.
Anti-corruption, economic and trade sanctions and export controls
We are subject to anti-corruption and economic and trade sanctions laws and regulations in the United States and other jurisdictions in which we operate. Anti-corruption laws, such as the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act in the United States and the Bribery Act 2010 in the United Kingdom, or the “Bribery Act, generally prohibit companies and those acting on their behalf from making improper payments to foreign government officials and political figures for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business or to gain an unfair business advantage. Some of these laws, such as the Bribery Act, also prohibit improper payments between private entities and persons. Economic and trade sanctions programs that are administered by the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s OFAC and equivalent applicable foreign authorities prohibit or restrict transactions to or from, or dealings with or involving, certain countries, regions, governments, and in certain circumstances, specified individuals and entities such as narcotics traffickers, terrorists, and terrorist organizations, as well as certain digital currency addresses owned by the foregoing. We are also required to comply with export control laws and regulations administered by the United States and other applicable jurisdictions, including those administered by the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Industry and Security. We have implemented compliance programs and controls designed to comply with the laws and regulations to which we are subject.
Privacy and protection of user data
We are subject to a number of laws, rules, directives, and regulations relating to the collection, use, retention, security, processing, and transfer of personally identifiable information about our customers and employees in the countries where we operate. Our business relies on the processing of personal data in many jurisdictions. As a result, much of the personal data that we process, which may include certain financial information associated with individuals, is regulated by multiple privacy and data protection laws and, in some cases, the privacy and data protection laws of multiple jurisdictions. In many cases, these laws apply not only to third-party transactions, but also to transfers of information between or among us, our subsidiaries, and other parties with which we have commercial relationships.
Consumer protection
The Federal Trade Commission, or FTC, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, or CFPB, and other U.S. federal, state, and local and foreign regulatory agencies regulate financial products, including money transfer services related to remittance or peer-to-peer transfers. These agencies, as well as certain other governmental bodies, including state attorneys general, have broad consumer protection mandates and discretion in enforcing consumer protection laws, including matters related to unfair or deceptive, and, in the case of the CFPB, abusive acts or practices, or UDAAPs, and they promulgate, interpret, and enforce rules and regulations that affect our business. The CFPB has enforcement authority to prevent an entity that offers or provides consumer financial services or products in the United States from committing or engaging in UDAAPs or violating other federal consumer financial laws, including the ability to engage in joint investigations with other agencies, issue subpoenas and civil investigative demands, conduct hearings and adjudication proceedings, commence a civil action, grant relief (e.g., limit activities or functions; rescission of contracts), and refer matters for criminal proceedings. Market disruptions have led to certain attempts by consumer protection focused agencies, including the CFPB, to directly regulate the crypto industry. New laws or regulations, or changes in enforcement of existing laws or regulations could require us to change certain business practices related to consumer disclosures, marketing and operational features related to payments and remittance regulations and other laws that may impact our business.
Research and Development
Our contractors are developing new features and products that allow us to trade additional cryptocurrencies that will enhance our platform. Our goal is to continue to offer innovative products to our customers that will allow us to increase our customer base and to increase commissions revenue.
Employees and Human Capital Resources
We had four full-time employees and four contractors as of December 31, 2025 as part of continuing operations. We strive to give our employees and consultants the tools that they need to succeed and we focus on attracting and retaining the best resources that are available.
None of our employees are represented by a labor union or covered by a collective bargaining agreement. We have not experienced any work stoppages, and we consider our relations with our employees to be good.
